It’s pretty clear based on his time at Burnley and Nottingham that he’s not as bad a footballer as he looked here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sarcasm!) Based solely on the fact Wood has scored more goals this season... 🙃 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miggys First Goal Posted October 22, 2024 Share Posted October 22, 2024 Shocking bit of business selling him. Club should hang their collective head in shame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

80 Posted October 22, 2024 Share Posted October 22, 2024 Tell you what, I think we'd benefit from having him at the moment... We could do with someone throwing some elbows and meowing to wind up defenders at the minute, we really are missing it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted October 22, 2024 Share Posted October 22, 2024 16 in 24 since Nuno went to Forest. Sometimes you just need a good manager to get the best out of you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted October 22, 2024 Share Posted October 22, 2024 Did anyone see the goal like? Was bobbins. Crisp packet hands England keepers letting em in for free. Does make me wonder whether Eddie has ever considered asking our team to shoot once in a while. IMO shooting leads to more goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiquidAK Posted October 22, 2024 Share Posted October 22, 2024 Said at the time he got way too much stick and did a lot for the team that went unsung. Didn't quite envision him turning into the kiwi R9 though Pleased it's working out for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of a clip I saw from training with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, managing Cardiff I think. He kept shouting "Shoot! Shoot! Shoot! Shoot! You never gonna score if you don't shoot!" Football genius, that one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 22, 2024 Share Posted October 22, 2024 I think it was Burnley with Pope where they deliberately allowed a lot of shots from distance between the two CBs because it was so unlikely to lead to a goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found a statistical analysis that attempts to answer the age old question: Who was better: Charlie Austin or Sergio Aguero? Anyway, as you can see, Sergio Aguero took 4.4 shots per game, and scored 25 goals, whereas Charlie Austin only took 3.7 shots per game, and therefore only scored 17 goals. So we finally know, Sergio Aguero was a better player than Charlie Austin. Anyway, as this relates to Newcastle, what I would propose, is that Eddie asks his players to be more like Sergio Aguero, and less like Charlie Austin.

Weezertron Posted October 22, 2024 Share Posted October 22, 2024 I liked Chris Wood as a guy, but he could win the Ballon Dor next year and I wouldn't give a fuck. He is a rare example of when we sold at the right time, for a decent fee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
